I'm curious who teams are talking to and at NFL.com they show us having spoken with 10 players (I'm sure it's much higher than that) but on that list 5 are WRs. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300000064...ayers-nfl-teams Then what traits are we looking at? Most are bigger WRs with the exception being Coleman. Devon Cajuste stood out to me because at 6'4" and 235lbs he's pretty close to what Zach Miller does for us. Reportedly Cajuste does not have the quickness needed off the line to get separation from CBs, but he has good enough speed against LBs. He'll need time to gain strength and learn blocking but he has the hands you want. He originally went to S…

First, I love seeing my favorite game gaining popularity in other nations. This guy has all the measurable you want at WR, or maybe at TE. I watched the highlight film and felt he would make a better move-TE than WR because his first step seems a bit slow. Then I see that he ran a 6.65 3-cone drill at his pro day. Those two don't match up IMO but we have to consider his highlights are most likely just him playing in Germany without the benefits of advanced training like he has been receiving in the last few months. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300000064...er-on-nfl-radar FWIW the self-proclaimed best player in the draft, Jalen Ramsey, ran a 6.9…

- Week 9 Bye (one of the best weeks to have a bye), Week 6 last year - Only 1 set of back to back away games (had 3 sets last year) - 4 Prime-time games (Wk2 vs PHI, Wk3 at DAL, Wk7 at GB, Wk8 vs MIN) - THU game against GB followed by MON against MIN going into Bye - SF and WAS play us in December at home

What high risk, high reward players are you hoping the Bears take a chance on? A few that come to mind: Robert Nkemdiche Shawn Oakman Moretz Boeringer Rashard Robinson Any others that you're thinking about?

Can anybody explain the Sheldon Rankins love going on with people? I think he is a good player but does not fit our D scheme. I have seen several mocks having him being drafted by us in the first. Is he suppose to be Aaron Donald? His stats dont show that. Maybe he could be a smallish NT but with Goldman already here, I wouldnt understand that pick if we took him in the first.

The best situation would be either Bosa or Buckner dropping. low chance The second best scenario would be us to trade back with Tenn (looking for a OT) which would get us an extra 3rd round pick by TVC. so we trade back with Tenn and get 15th pick (choice of Reed,Lawson,Jackson III) and there 76th pick 15th pick---Lawson / I think we valve pass rushers and he has the body of McPhee and the pass rush skills of Chandler Jones. 41th pick--Cris Jones/DT is still here so we grab a starter for the DL 72nd pick-C J Prossie we definitly grab a RB and he will fit in well with our RBC 76th pick(Tenn trade) Sean Davis can play both CB or S and will start as a …

I like this draft....maybe not the players selected but the overall concept of what we need to make the Bears the Monsters of the Midway again. Fannie is getting this players like he had in SD with that great d. We got Floyd would could be the next Smith/Miller...we got Hicks and Bullard...got a LIL who played saftey (Urlacher type..not saying he will be ) a big corner....a hard hitting saftey......wow.......now all we need is a back up QB( I would sign Homer for now)and a TE.

http://www.csnchicago.com/chicago-bears/ta...as-been-evident Thought this was a good read. I continue to be excited what we are trying to build on the defensive side of the ball. That said, I hope we can figure out a way to find a long-term piece at QB (looking much longer term than Jay, who is fine for the next couple of years).

IIRC Zach Miller used to play around 235lbs. Judging by this photo Miller has added some sterngth over the offseason. Housler is listed at 250lbs and is just 1" taller. He said he wanted to improve as a blocker and it looks like he committed himself to that goal. http://www.chicagobears.com/multimedia/pho...7c-d08bc5c212c5 One thing about Fox that is noticeable from past coaching staffs is his emphasis on players working with the trainers and the nutritionist. I don't know how many times I've seen Jenn Gibson mentioned regarding player's conditioning program but she is the only Sport Science Coordinator and Nutritionist I've ever heard of among the Front…

Anyone else drinking this Kool-Aid? http://www.scout.com/nfl/bears/story/16720...-top-10-in-2016 In the article he states our secondary was ranked 4th in the league but I find that deceiving in part due to the lack of run defense. I also don't have the much confidence in either Fuller or Porter. Yet we weren't that bad in the 2nd half of the season. Evidence for optimism resides here: http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2015112602/2...3&tab=recap I think top 10 D is a realistic possibility with a little bit of luck. That luck includes someone else among the young safeties stepping up as a legit starter next to Amos. Good health among the ILB star…

http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/16579465...yan-dies-age-82 http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...0628-story.html R.I.P. the best defensive mind in football ever.

JJ Wyatt maybe out for the first game. Egales QB Sam Bradford Romo is hurt will miss our game Vikings

Hester is trying out for the Ravens.....we need a kickoff/punt returner......my i would sign him if he is healthy. He can do what Mariani does ....plus he wants to retire a Bear

There has been some concern expressed to the Admins of the forum about avatars being used by some posters. There are posters on the forum who have young children who either read posts on the forum or are present when the parent is reading posts on the forum and are uncomfortable, for various reasons, for them to see avatars of a sexually provocative nature. Being the father of 5, grandfather of 9, great grandfather of 3, I can certainly understand. The Admins therefore would certainly appreciate if forum posters would consider less sexually explicit avatars. If a registered member of the forum would like to do so there is also another option. If y…

Kyle Long and Sitton are too experienced to be making these mistakes. Not all mistakes in the first 3 games are on them but clearly there are numerous issues on the Oline that need to be corrected for this running game to take off. http://bearswire.usatoday.com/2016/09/29/f...gainst-cowboys/

I got to coach a 5-6 grade football game against Roosevelt Colvin. His son looks just like him. We won 30-13.
